Were you even alive when Sgt. Pepper's came out? You obviously don't know anything about it. The Sgt. Pepper's album was among the first to use multi-channel tape, and there was quite a bit of news about it at the time.

"John Lennon - "you haven't even heard Sgt Peppers till you've heard it in mono"

Don't make me laugh. He never said any such thing.

Uranium: In fact, Lennon's endorsement of mono version over the stereo version is widely quoted. In fact, the Wikipedia article on Sgt Pepper's -- which you seem to think is authoritative (at least when it supports your point) -- notes, as i did previsouly, that the members of the Beatles DIDN'T EVEN ATTEND THE MIXING OF THE STEREO VERSION. I'll bet that, if Lennon gave a sh*t how the stereo version sounded, he would have showed up to at the mixing, as he did for the mono version.

There's this thing called google.com where you can actually look stuff up to see if you are right before you insult people. Try it some time.

Whether the Beatles attended the stereo mixing is irrelevant. George Martin (the ("Fifth Beatle") handled such things. I was alive at the time, and I remember the excitement about the stereo effects on the album. Were you?
